History

Braellis is thought to have been born a mortal man who was gifted with godhood upon his death for his deeds in life. He was said to be a warrior of great prowess in battle; a true master with both blade and bow that few could best. More than his great fighting skills, he had a strong spirit and believed in honor and justice. He was swift and deadly when appropriate, but also fair and merciful when needed. Though far more fierce and warlike than he, Olyrn took an interest in Braellis and eventually welcomed him into the pantheon of Arkaz. Olyrn and his paladins will always work to maintain peace, but he knows that with the forces of evil that vie for power in Arkaz, battle is sometimes unavoidable. This is why he trusts the honorable and just Braellis to inspire young and hopeful warriors of the islands.

Above all else, Braellis preaches honor. A warrior of Braellis must not lie, cheat, or kill for amusement. That being said, he sees no shame in each warrior using their own strengths. A quick and deadly archer is as much a warrior as a steel-armored swordsman in his eyes. His belief in justice does not always mean following the letter of the law either. A warrior who fights against corruption and unfairness in the law is as much a warrior as those who uphold law. Personal honor and strength is what is most important to Braellis.

It is not certain who were the first to become followers of Braellis, but he has becoming known more frequently throughout the islands these days.

There is a temple to Braellis in Heroes' Walk.
